This territory generally includes an area with a minimum count of 5,000 businesses, ensuring a specific market for each franchisee to focus their business efforts.
However, the franchisor retains discretion to modify the territory size if the business landscape changes, such as a significant increase in the number of businesses within the area.

This includes operating or franchising competitive businesses under different trademarks and serving customers within a franchisee’s territory in specific circumstances, such as when the franchisee is unavailable or in default.
